In the run-up to Christmas, a lot of us consider donating to charities. But what motivates us to actually follow through? Too much focus on encouraging sympathy in potential charity donors can actually have the opposite effect, according to new research from Lund University in Sweden. Our willingness to help others is controlled as much by our head and moral compass - as by the heart. This has bee

For human beings to function socially, they need to be able to perceive, understand, and talk about others’ mental states, such as beliefs, desires and intentions. There is no consensus among researchers as to when children develop this ability. Previous research indicates that it emerges around the age of four, but research at Lund University in Sweden shows that children can demonstrate this abi

Cancer cells in children tend to develop by following four main trajectories – and two of them are linked to relapse of the disease, research led by Lund University in Sweden shows. The four strategies can occur simultaneously in a single tumour, according to the study that is now published in Nature Genetics. The researchers mapped out the genome of cancer cells from more than 50 tumours in order

Lund University in Sweden has received prestigious grants of EUR 4 million from the European Research Council (ERC). The funding is allocated to two new projects in biology and environmental research respectively. One project concerns gaining insights into one of the animal world’s most sensitive biological compasses. The other will examine the continuing decline of pollinating insects. Lund Unive

There has been no known link between diabetes and vitamin A -- until now. A new study suggests that the vitamin improves the insulin producing β-cell´s function.The researchers initially discovered that insulin-producing beta-cells contain a large quantity of a cell surface receptor for vitamin A. "There are no unnecessary surface receptors in human cells. They all serve a purpose but which, in ma

Researchers have succeeded in restoring lost brain function in mouse models of stroke using small molecules that in the future could potentially be developed into a stroke recovery therapy. “Communication between nerve cells in large parts of the brain changes after a stroke and we show that it can be partially restored with the treatment”, says Tadeusz Wieloch, senior professor of neurobiology at
